The Institute for Safety and Health Management (ISHM) thanks Department of Defense (DOD) employees with no CSHM, CSMP and ASHM application fees.

ISHM is pleased to announce that active employees of the Department of Defense are now eligible for a special offer. DOD employees, both civilian and military, who are interested in pursuing safety management certification through ISHM no longer have to pay an application fee. This special opportunity from ISHM is a way of recognizing the service of the dedicated men and women of the DOD.

As a key component of this offer, ISHM is now waving the application fees for the Certified Safety and Health Manager (CSHM), Certified Safety Management Practitioner (CSMP) and the Associate Safety and Health Manager (ASHM) programs for active DOD employees.

Safety professionals who have earned these prestigious designations provide vital services in both the Department of Defense and private industry. Certification in the safety management field can lead to new employment opportunities, career advancement, peer recognition and a long list of other benefits. Certification holders of these internationally recognized programs are sought after by human resources (HR) managers in Fortune 500 companies and government agencies such as OSHA, EPA, Homeland Security, Army, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard.

“ISHM is proud to make this special offer to active DOD professionals who are in the military, Reserve, Guard and those who are civilian employees,” said Larry Curtis, CSHM, Executive Director of ISHM. “A key function of ISHM is to promote the advancement of safety and health management through the application of management principles and the integration of safety and health into all levels and activities of management. These functions are especially true for DOD employees because of the nature of their work.”
